Lovely Morning chit-chat August 2025

Good morning.  Glad you had a lovely birthday Annette, your children and grandchildren spoilt you with homemade gifts which are so thoughtful.   Your photos look lovely Stella, definitely happy memories.  Tvman would you recommend Legoland, I do not have children but wondered if it was good just for adults to go.  Patrick we are hoping to go on 6 September but I haven't booked it yet I am scared something will go wrong.  We are going to Praia da Luz.  Are you going to Thailand for a month?  It is difficult to go away when you have four dogs as the housesitters have to be booked nearly a year in advance and we all know with cancer that is not possible.  Hope you have a good day Ellie and Lucy.  I hope everyone has a good day.  It is a BBQ for us today as lovely sunny weather.

What a lovely experience, and a lovely memory to look back on.

Sorry me again.  Has anyone been to Tavira in Portugal?  And also has anyone heard or used a grounding mat?

Hi

I am still in J’burgh. Not doing much as not able to walk outside even in day light. It is very odd as there is hardly anyone walking outside at all. One has to drive everywhere. The hotel is very nice and directly connected to a massive shopping mall. 
Patrick: the pride of lions we met already had a big meal beforehand. I will be just a snack for them. The guide said they probably had buffalo or hippo as all 10 lions / lionesses are very full. 

I will be using this photo again on a hot day

Ellie how are you getting on? Is your memory getting better? 
Lucy any more holiday plans?

Lee 2 Portugal sounds great for September. I have only been to Lisbon and Porto. Lovely food and wine! 
Annett : happy birthday!

Tvman hope you , Mrs and rest of the family having a great time. 
Eddie: how are you doing?

Hope every one has had a nice day, i have.

My  brother  and his partner,  surprised me and turned up.

Then my eldest grandson  and his partner and the new baby, was lovely , just to have a cuddle.

Aw sounds just perfect Ellie xx

Well no hols booked for me Stella but hubby has 2 cycling trips planned for September (France and Ireland) - lucky him !! 

I hope Winston has been behaving whilst you’ve been away - he’s probably decided that you must have put him up for adoption and are not coming back

My oncologist's secretary has just phoned me, he wants to see me in the morning.  I am now like a nervous wreck as I was only supposed to see him on 27 September.  So scared now.

Hi Lee

Take a deep breath which is hard, we have all been thereat some point.

Have you had any test's recently, could be he will not be there may be on holiday, or phone the secretary  back and ask why.

Hi Lee

There’s nothing I can say to relieve your anxiety..sadly ..

HOWEVER…your oncologist sounds proactive and must see some point in bringing your appointment forward 

I’ll be thinking about you today and tomorrow 

Lots of love and virtual hugs 

Lucy xx
